Topic: My Sporadic Writing Life

For those who have stuck with me through the years, reviewing my work even when my response wasn't timely or not at all I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
It is time you get the explanation you deserve.
I battle relentless depression. In the past I've returned reviews and thanked my readers in a timely manner, when I felt good. But then the Black Dog of depression would visit and I'd disappear into the darkness and off this site.
Now that I am 70 and I see how much time depression swallowed up, I've finally started antidepressants and counseling. I also am working on procrastination.
While I can't promise I will from now on reply to your review in a timely manner, I can only promise that I will try.
Again I want to thank you for your patience, your loyalty and the selfless way you interacted with me without the assurance that I would respond in kind.
This site and the people on it mean a lot to me and hopefully, I will be able to contribute another thirteen years.

Hey Dags, no worries on my part, ever! I love your writing and always enjoy reading it. As for sporadic posting, depression, and procrastination? You're speaking my language, lady! (Note my hit and miss style here, currently missing, lol!) I'm so glad if you're feeling better and am always rooting for you, my friend.  ~  Cathy
